77: Jiang Yuan is targeted

The bald-headed youth, wielding a large saber, had just gotten up when he was struck by a purple lightning bolt from the sky.

White light flickered on the bald-headed youth's body as his armor activated, but in the next second, the armor's light shattered, and the lightning penetrated straight through.

“Ah!”

He roared, his body trembling, but the bald-headed youth’s cry also attracted the attention of the others.

“Huh?”

Qin Boyuan on the stage had just dealt with the four old rascals from the top academies when he saw Jiang Yuan directly put away the Linglong Pagoda.

Then he launched an attack on someone else.

“Mu Qianshan, didn't you say his combat power was basically all reliant on Nezha?”

Qin Boyuan pondered for a moment and quickly realized.

Indeed, Mu Qianshan said he made the Nezha card because he didn't have enough money to become a Skill Card Master or a Beast Tamer Card Master.

But now he had money.

Not to mention the deposit given by the military, just the eight purple-quality cards he sold after leaving that day.

This was already enough for him to buy a pile of white-quality cards to arm himself from head to toe.

“So this kid actually changed because of this opportunity I gave him.”

Qin Boyuan smiled, but in the next second, his smile froze on his face.

“In that case, will there be no Summoning Cards in the future?”

Qin Boyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Jiang Yuan with some apprehension.

If a new card genre was lost because of him...

Then his sin would be quite great!

However, they couldn't possibly take back the deposit they gave him now, could they?

Qin Boyuan had a headache, and Mayor Si Chengwen and the people from the other four top academies were also somewhat surprised.

He actually had combat power?

But then again, myasthenia doesn't affect the circulation of Star Power, as long as he doesn't die, there are still many ways to gain combat power.

The simplest way is to follow the path of a Skill Card Master, constantly using cards to release skills.

There were also Beast Tamer Card Masters, Mechanical Card Masters, and so on.

For example, the eternal pain in Zhongyuan Academy's heart, he followed the path of a Mechanical Card Master.

Flesh is weak, mechanical ascension!

But with such combat power, why wasn't it displayed during the Dongtian Simulation League?

Everyone was a bit confused; they really couldn't figure it out.

The reason it wasn't displayed in the Dongtian Simulation League was because he didn't have much money to create various Skill Cards.

Most of the money from selling those Linglong Pagodas was used to make cards for Nezha.

Si Chengwen watched Jiang Yuan, who had emerged from the golden small pagoda to actively participate in the battle, and his eyes gradually became interested.

He just didn't know if his Skill Cards were self-made or purchased?

After all, in their minds, Jiang Yuan was a card-making genius with no combat power.

Now, suddenly revealing his combat power, it truly surprised them.

Regardless of the reactions of those on stage, Jiang Yuan, who was in the Martial Arts Arena, felt a sudden jolt in his heart after attacking the bald-headed youth.

He turned his head to look.

After the bald-headed youth let out a scream, everyone's gaze turned to this spot.

Upon seeing Jiang Yuan emerge from the Linglong Pagoda, they instantly reached a consensus.

This sneaky guy who only came out to fight now must be eliminated first!

The previous few people who came out of the Linglong Pagoda were also jointly eliminated by them.

We are fighting to the death here, why should you hide until now to pick up the spoils?

The disappearance of several Linglong Pagodas also gave them a general idea of the pattern.

Presumably, this last person also came out because the duration of that golden small pagoda had expired.

Jiang Yuan glanced at the hostile crowd, then at the bald head, somewhat scorched by the lightning.

He gritted his teeth, and a white card appeared before Jiang Yuan again.

As Jiang Yuan waved his sword-finger, a long sword flew out from the white card.

“Go!”

With Jiang Yuan's soft cry, the sword, shining with a faint golden light, flew directly towards the bald-headed youth.

With the sword blade swinging, the bald-headed youth, without armor, could not block this golden long sword at all.

The golden long sword sliced across his neck, and the bald-headed youth was instantly eliminated.

Sword Control: Golden Light!

The sword's name is Golden Light, from the Skill Card series Sword Control.

This, like the Thunder Spell: Summon Lightning used just now, was a card Jiang Yuan specifically made for the martial arts test these past two days.

However, he didn't expect the rules of the martial arts test to change, no longer being one-on-one.

He originally wanted to make a big splash in the first few rounds and try out his combat skills.

He didn't expect to find an opportunity until now.

Jiang Yuan sighed, but thankfully, he eliminated one.

As Jiang Yuan sighed, the Linglong Pagoda once again enveloped him.

“Clang!”

As the golden body of the Linglong Pagoda enveloped Jiang Yuan, a dagger struck the pagoda's body, emitting a melodious clang of metal on metal.

“How can this guy still use it!”

The dozen or so people who had already rushed halfway there paused, then, by common consent, started fighting each other again.

They had tried it long ago; if they couldn't break through that golden small pagoda, they would have eliminated these guys hiding inside it a long time ago.

Jiang Yuan propped his chin, sitting cross-legged again in the Linglong Pagoda, watching them fight.

He had already eliminated one, and he had tested his combat power.

It's alright, barely enough.

Although he still had a few cards he didn't have time to use.

Jiang Yuan propped his chin watching them, and Si Chengwen also propped his chin watching Jiang Yuan.

“By the way, isn't there a problem with this competition system?”

“The problem is with the people, not the competition system…”

Qin Boyuan naturally knew what Si Chengwen was referring to.

Because in several arenas, the top ten were all people who managed to last until the end by using that golden small pagoda.

From their perspective, without that golden small pagoda, there's no way they could have lasted until the end.

And that's not even counting Jiang Yuan, who only appeared once from the golden small pagoda from the beginning until now.

To be honest, Qin Boyuan was also very much in favor of this competition system.

This was much more interesting than one-on-one.

It was just that this time, there was the variable of the golden small pagoda.

“After this, why don’t we just revert to the old competition system, one-on-one, otherwise, if that guy just sits in the golden small pagoda, I’ll really get a headache.”

Si Chengwen pointed to Jiang Yuan with some annoyance: “Anyway, after another round, there will only be two hundred people left, so it’s better to revert to the one-on-one system, otherwise he’ll just sit there and become a top ten again.”

After Si Chengwen finished speaking, everyone nodded in unison.

Just now, at the beginning of Arena 3, over a dozen golden small pagodas descended, which really gave them high blood pressure.

If this scene were to happen again, they would truly be annoyed.

One must know that currently, about seven or eight people with golden small pagodas have successfully advanced.

According to the current situation, it's possible that in the next two hundred-person free-for-all, the beginning will still see a dozen or twenty golden small pagodas descend.

It's too disgusting!

This free-for-all competition system can wait until next year; this year's second round will revert to the old system!
